SETTING UP A NEW BUSINESS?
WANTING TO DO BUSINESS WITH ESTABLISHED FIRMS?
INVESTING IN HAWAI`I'S FUTURE?
APRIL, 2007
WHO IS THE BEST PERSON TO HELP YOU SUCCEED IN BUSINESS!!
It's Never Too Soon Nor Too Late
To Start Thinking About Money!
Here we are - just days away from April 15th - and have you chosen a professional to help plan your financial future yet? Don't even dream that you can get an appointment to do your taxes at this late date if you are a new client; however, I certainly
can help you file an automatic extension until August 15th. Remember, if you think you owe taxes, you'll have to send in the estimated payment in order to avoid additional penalties. Give me a call to get more information ASAP.
Remember, it's not always necessary to retain a Certified Public Accountant. Enrolled Agents receive training & certification to deal with the IRS, and bookkeeping services can also handle most kinds of straightforward business accounting matters.
But remember, there's more to be concerned about than just keeping your tax records straight. The more complex your affairs are - rental income, investments, inheritances, business income, retirement planning, management services - then you really need a Certified Public Accountant.
Start off by making sure that you've picked someone who not only has been trained to count the beans and crunch the numbers but who also knows how to communicate with you in words you can understand without using a dictionary!
With 30 years' experience as a Certified Public Accountant providing accounting, taxation, management advisory services, information systems training & installation, and financial planning services to individuals, small businesses, other professionals, and non-profits, I can help you succeed at doing what you do best by doing what I do best. Please call or e-mail me as to how I can be of help. I look forward to hearing from you.
